Janice Dean of Fox News Provides Health Update During MS Battle\n\n\n\n

Janice Dean on Twitter\n\n\n\n

On Tuesday, May 30, Fox News senior meteorologist Janice Dean posted an inspirational video about her fight with multiple sclerosis on Twitter in observance of World MS Day.\n\n\n\n

In the video, Dean stated, \u201cI wanted to let you know that MS really doesn\u2019t present itself in a lot of ways.\u201d \u201cI call it the \u2018invisible illness,\u2019 the \u2018My, you look so well\u2019 disease because, even though we may appear fine\u2014I got my hair and makeup done\u2014our bodies are attacking the brain, spine, and central nervous system.\u201d\n\n\n\n

In 2005, Dean, a co-host and weather anchor on Fox & Friends, received a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. She has been candid about her fight with MS since the beginning, discussing her treatments and difficulties over the course of over 20 years, as she stated in the video.\n\n\n\n

The back of my neck felt nearly like it had been sunburned yesterday. Overnight last night, I sensed it. I\u2019m feeling it again today because I didn\u2019t get enough sleep,\u201d Dean told her Twitter followers.\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are moments when it can be difficult to put on \u201cthat smiling face,\u201d she added, adding that \u201ceven if we seem okay on the outside, I have my hair and makeup done, and I\u2019m smiling on Fox and Friends, inside can be quite a challenge and what it feels like.\u201d\n\n\n\n

\u201cTogether, I think we are stronger, and even if we don\u2019t have a cure for this, there is certainly the hope that we can stop the progression all together, which would be wonderful,\u201d Dean said in reference to her fellow MS Warriors.\n\n\n\n

\u201cThere are promising things on the horizon and new therapies out there,\u201d she stated. And that\u2019s why I\u2019m stating now that, despite my current state of unhappiness, I am optimistic and that I will keep spreading awareness.\n\n\n\n

On Wednesday, May 31, Dean provided an update on her most current symptoms in a follow-up post. She posted on Instagram, \u201cAnd here\u2019s my update: went to the doctor yesterday.\u201d There will be additional testing to determine the cause of my flare-up, new MRIs, and a course of steroids to help with pain. I feel a little better now. We must continue to move. I appreciate everyone\u2019s prayers and kindness.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
